Game Drive to Lake Manyara National Park

Game Drive to Lake Manyara National Park

Our office representative or drive guide will pick you up, have a short safari brief, and then drive to Lake Manyara National Park for a full-day game drive with picnic lunch boxes.

This impressive park is one of Tanzania’s most dramatically located wildlife areas. Also, this park is serene and beautiful, with tree-climbing lions, elephants, and hippos that you can see at a closer range than most other places. Lake Manyara is an alkaline lake that hosts thousands of flamingoes at certain times of the year and diverse other bird life. The lake and its surroundings are also home to herbivores such as hippos, impalas, elephants, wildebeest, buffalos, warthogs, and giraffes. Also, the Rift Valley escarpment forms a noteworthy landmark and provides a spectacular backdrop to Lake Manyara.

Instead of an evening game drive, you will be transported directly to the hotel for dinner and overnight accommodations.

Serengeti National Park is the largest of all the parks in Tanzania. It is a World Heritage Site and a biosphere reserve. The Serengeti ecosystem is perhaps best known for continuously migrating millions of wildebeest, zebras, and Thompson’s gazelles.
